Product details

The Molex 0432238122 is a 2-port RJ45 jack from the 43223 series, terminated right-angle through-hole with board locks. It carries 8p8c (Ethernet) contacts per port, gold-plated to 50.0µin (1.27µm) on phosphor bronze — that plating thickness is well into the range for repeated plug insertions in a patch panel or wall plate, not a one-and-done internal header. The board lock keeps the jack anchored to the PCB during the inevitable yank on a patch cable; without it, the solder joints take the full shear load and crack over time.

The Cat4 rating tells you this jack is specified for Category 4 cabling performance — 20 MHz bandwidth, good for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T4 Ethernet. For a modern 1 GbE or PoE run you want Cat5e or better, so this part is a fit for legacy installs or control networks where the cable plant is already Cat4. The right-angle orientation means the PCB edge holds the jack parallel to the board — common for add-in cards or vertical-mount applications where the cable exits sideways. Two ports in one body saves board space compared to two single jacks side by side, but the 2-port width still needs clearance on the edge of the board for both mating plugs.

Frequently asked questions

Is 0432238122 shielded or unshielded?

The 0432238122 is an unshielded RJ45 jack. It does not contain a metal shield or LED indicators, making it a basic, cost-effective option for non-shielded Ethernet applications.
